Sept. 6 CUE Scattered Scat-tered paragraphs containing scattered scat-tered thoughts: -- The New York Yankees have decided that Phil Rizzuto, their tiny shortstop, is a good luck token to-ken and they wouldn't part with him even if he couldn't swing a bat or stoop to field a grounder. The kid. has been in baseball fjve years and each year has played on a team that won the pennant. Mike Jacobs and bis assistants are talking seriously about possibility possi-bility of getting a $1,000,000 gate for the Louis-Nova fight this month. The town Is ing to be fun of peofrie here to see the world series (or part of it, at least) and the idea seems to be that they will , osme on a little 'earlier and see the fight, which ' Is scheduled for September 29....

Coach Griffith Kimball misses a group of ace linemen and several good backfield men, and is expecting expect-ing to find the going tough against the Idaho team.

Mak rwta of avl SH BH i, not m wwrni . v 7m emif aaacil or Bldg., Minneapolis, Minn, SPORTS HUDDLE ; By GLEN SNARR All-Star Selection Could Be Fairer Personally, we believe a much better way could have been devised de-vised to select the Industrial league all-star team which will play the Bees of the Pioneer league Wednesday at Salt Lake City. Ballots Bal-lots are being - distributed out of Salt Lake, giving Pinney, Gem-mell, Gem-mell, and -Magna clubs an unfair advantage. Provo and Helper particularly par-ticularly have been ignored in the voting to date yet Provo's Timps are the class of the circuit. How About Page, Berge, Dudley, etc?- Class of the league at their respective positions are Provo's. Len Page, Glen Berge, and Fran Dudley. At least one or two of the .other players also merits all-star consideration, con-sideration, but" these especially have been outstanding all year. Don Overly would undoubtedly make any picked club had he not been "beaned." There's no better first baseman in the state than Lenn Page that includes both. Pioneer and Industrial leagues. Len .is as brilliant bril-liant a fielder as any of them, steadier, and is as good a hitter in the clutch as one could find. Berge is head and shoulders above the rest of the shortstops. Overly is the best defensive backstop in the loop, and as good a sticker as most. Managers Should Select AH-StarsA- Magna and Gemmeli have the advantage in public balloting because' both are company-sponsored and it isn't difficult to get large numbers of workers to vote for any player or entire team for that matter. Fairest method of selecting an all-star team for the police benefit would be to have the managers or even the players vote on the most valuatie players. At any rate, the officials of the police benefit could have carried on the selection by more efficient and fairer methods. Championship Playoff Games Planned-First Planned-First of a five-game series to determine the 1941 Industrial Indus-trial league champion will be played. a week from today, probably in Provo, according to Bob Bullock, league prexy. Provo, first half champs, will battle the second half winner. Timps Vs. Bees Was Contemplated Our Timps would "have been pitted against the Salt Lake Bees today, with the winner taking all of" the gate receipts, if plans of Manager Lob Collins had gone through. The Bees couldn't see their way clear to come down for a game, but a contest may be on tap later. If and when the two clubs meet, we'd string along with the Timps because of more experience, better hitting, and good enough pitching except for a long series. Pioneer League All-Stars Hamed SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 6 UH The Pioneer league all-star team selected for the National Association of Professional Baseball Base-ball Leagues by league writers and managers, was announced today containing five players from Ogden, four from Boise, two from Salt Lake City and one from Pocatello.
